i never believed that obama quite frankly that obama was going to lose. that peace was not actually a surprise to me and i was very confident going into it on that but the data side, to what chad was talking about on this very narrative is that polling has to show up not just majority in states, polling always have to show up at 56 or 57 to even think we had a shot at voting. and so i went into this very nervous about those votes and so obviously i was pleasantly surprised but i have to admit i have a personal stake in this. i got married in canada in 2004, across the border and i wasn't married. i lived in d.c. for a while, moved to california. i was married for a while in california and then i moved to washington and i wasn't married again. and now, i'm about to get married again.

so i think a first thing to look at is actually president obama's budget. president obama's budget actually does have specific way to get to additional $1.6 trillion in revenue, people may not like it. we can have a debate around it but it goes line by line as you can get an additional $1.6 trillion in revenue. when it comes to entitlements it has an additional $300 billion in savings. health care it goes line by line. in the next several weeks my guess is we're not going to agree to all those lines. my hope is they agree to overall targets when it comes to entitlements and revenue, they may lay out a number of the ways that you'd end up reaching those targets and several months after that, that actually write the legislation. i think the danger is that when it comes to the discretionary budget, 40% of the budget that's annually appropriate, where you decide how to allocate resources annually, what they decide to do is they end up reducing that category three or five years out. they realize they don't have to make the hard decisions for three to five years

did you see over the weekend president obama was in bangkok confident a deal could be made. geithner sounded confident a deal could be made. it's funny. a number of guys this weekend mentioned to me the signs to buy would not come from congress. it's going to come from the irs. a number of guys have been mentioning it's likely the deal looks possible or even very likely. the irs will issue a directive to everybody essentially telling everybody not to change withholding rates if we look like we have a deal. that's exempting the top 2% of course. when you get that even if you don't have a deal, that's a detectivi directive that the thing will happen there. keep your book light. a lot of guys play different books. 60% long, 40% short. a lot of guys a good part of their books are now in the cash side right now. the important thing is looking at some of these hedge fund returns, most returns are up 4%, 5%, 6%. somewhere around there. the s&p is up 8%. most of them are still under performing on the year. you mentioned the impact on sandy and manufacturing. this certainly makes sen
